WHAM!- Roy Lichtenstein
This One is rather obvious I've connected it to Klavier and Clay because of the comic book style. It is definatly and American painting as you can feel a certain patriotism radiating off the side of the plane. But more than that Lichtenstein gives us a very descriptive monologue and explative that tie in with the style of the escapist. Obviously this pilot has no powers but that villian still isnt coming back.Planes Go Fly Fast
Cadillac 37' Mark Thilman 1959
This painting just screamed Gatsby to me. You have a very wealthy man who is living the wealthy life in a prosperous time. He still seems reluctant to me as he is abot to get into the car with his wife and driver he seems happier dealing with the newspaper boy.
Its Joad. Listen to him talk about purple. At Once Rough and Velvety No. 354
Harold Gregor, 2006
I felt this picture went wonderfully with The Grapes of Wrath, It feels like a scene from Yellow Submarine, a British roadtrip, but really depicts a broad spectrum of American landscape. This is the ideal representation of what the Joads were looking for when they headed west, land that could yield a crop. It even has a road zomg.
Americans in Paris
Hulton Archive - 1914 Obvious Daisy miller because isnt that what we all look like traveling? I love this photo because everyone in it is making a point not to smile and appear restrained to the viewer. Also they seem like they've driven everyone away from them seeing that they are the only people on the whole top floor of a tourbus. We insult the French but they are the ones who think we stink apparently.
